Shiv, I'll echo what many are saying:

"Excellent work"
"Well done"
"Nothing is better than buying a product that keeps giving back to you"
"Awesome work Vishnu team"

In the video you said "half quarter throttle, 3/4 throttle, full throttle". When you say it it goes exactly to that point. Are you voice activating the Procede to accelerate to the desire throttle position?

MM Performance · 07-16-2010, 10:49 AM

this is truly amazing, Shiv keeps setting the bar higher, Congrats on a very well integrated solution, just saved my $100 or so

BTW where do you get boost guages for $20 shiv?

Those in the email beta list will be getting this simple firmware update later today (Friday). Just update your firmware and it will turn your fuel gauge into a boost gauge that mirrors the same user boost scaling that we've all gotten used to. Full=20psi of boost, Empty=0psi, 1/5 tank=10psi. Simple.

Cheers,
Shiv

is it 1/2 tank= 10psi?

Lol......I was wondering how long before someone caught the traditional Shiv typo error that comes standard with every update.

But on a serious note...as already stated, nice work!

I like it better than the digital version you had originally planned for.

lol. I think he just has freakishly good foot-eye coordination.

StartupJunkie · 07-16-2010, 11:36 AM

Congrats Vishnu Team.

I think this is much better delivery than the temp guage, which was much harder to read and does not show ramp rate like your new way of displaying that data.

Can't wait to try it. I guess you can chalk up another money saving feature via thoughtful hardware design and constantly evolving software.

That's what I'm thinking, but knowing Shiv he might be experimenting on something else at the same time. It was really spot on those throttle positions.

elim11 · 07-16-2010, 11:55 AM

Oh Snaps. This is looking real good! Much better than the digital output you had previously. Can't wait to try it.

If you were emailed me the 6-16 maps, are you automatically on the beta list?

bmwzimmer · 07-16-2010, 11:56 AM

Shiv, 2 questions

1.) What happens when your fuel runs low. Will the low fuel warning light come on?

2.) When are you getting an Iphone 4 so your videos can be in 720p?

he already has one

AltecBX · 07-16-2010, 12:29 PM

Shiv for us that have navigation, I'm assuming that we will still have the notification of low fuel in our display anyways.
This boost gauge makes perfect sense, as I always go by the reminder in the navigation side and display reminder than the actual gauge itself.

ridin135 · 07-16-2010, 12:34 PM

definitely going to use this to monitor meth flow. Great work shiv, on a side note how well do you think gauge motor will last since it was originally desighned to move very little very slowly, or does the mpg gauge have the same motor as the tac.

You will still have all your notifications as the DME still knows what the actual fuel level is. Same thing applies when we take over the oil temp gauge. The DME still knows the actual oil temp regardless of what the needle is doing. As such, it will still provide overtemp warnings and limit boost when cold.

Everything we are doing is a CANbus job. No actual analog signal inputs are modified.

They all have the same type of motor so I don't expect any durability issues. And I've never heard of such a failure anyway.

junglee444 · 07-16-2010, 01:07 PM

Nothing more to add then to say...............SWEET. I had to take out my Procede for service right before I received the Autotune firmware and map. Can't wait to reinstall the Procede to check out all these new featured that surfaced over the last 2-3 weeks.
